Hard Days

These Days, I really deal with hard days. I don't know if this two last words is right or not. I just want to say that I must work from 08.00 morning to midnight. I requested to be translater of arabic and english newspaper in Mekah Branch of Indonesian Haj Mission in Saudi Arabia. I translate the news or articles related to haj or Islamic world. Yeah, it's fun.

Before two days, I translated news that Al-Waleed Bin Talal, the Saudian Bussinesman from the Kingdom family and the fifth most wealthy person in the world has donated $ 40 M to two leading US Universities: Harvard and Georgetown to promote Islamic Studies and interfaith understanding in US. Yeah, of course, I think, this effort is good news for us in according to improve Islamic image in the West.

Other news, there will be big project of Saudian Government to improve jamarat location that several time be the dying place of pilgrimes as the result of too many people at small place and short time. The news said that in next four years, after finishing the project, there will be no problem in the place.

I think that I will know more and more about haj and islamic world. But, I find that it's difficult to find room for contomplation and make deep article. It's all for this time. Bye.

Saudi Arabia

I'm sorry. I've been very busy in these weeks, preparing my travel to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). I'm one of 11 Indonesian students in Morocco who get opportunity to service Indonesian pilgrims during this season of hajj. We will be here (in KSA) untill mid february. But i must make apologize before, because its very difficult to find internet cafe here in Mecca. So, may be my posting will be not as frequent as when i'm in Morocco.
